Hey, Jerezblue and 13 Eastie lets agree a date (weather dependant ????) and a meeting place and go for a drive and end up somewhere, take a few snaps/video even and then post it for our friends around the world, but mostly for our friends over the pond (I got American blood in me, so I wanna give them a treat - 3 M3's - man that sounds sweet!).

Weekends good for me - I free 19/1, 26/1, 27/1

Sorry, read your post just after posting my last one in this thread. I was dubious at first to be honest, and even PM'd Eastie requesting his view on the legitamacy of it all - but since then I figured what the hell. If it's dodgy, I can get away pretty quick!! Right now, they're killing baby sheep on the TV in a series called 'kill it, cook it, eat it', I'd rather be thinking about my car; driving and taking photos and filming a video with a couple of other guys enjoying the same positive experience!!

However, this is not likely to happen, so, as previously discussed, I know good roads out into oxfordshire and or hampshire.

Agreed, somewhere in the home counties would be best. We should try and make it a bit 'Top Gear' ish. Only this time we'll all have M3s! Also, I'm not too bothered about the weather - only that it's not raining or snowing. A Sunday would be ideal preferably before the F1 season starts. Can you post a map of your suggested meeting point and route (including where we might get a bite to eat and discuss the merits of everything on film). I've got an HD Video CAM but no tripod. This could be a lot of fun.

Pictures would be fantastic and enormously appreciated...a short video from one of your guys' dash-mounted camera (hell, even hand-held) from part of the drive would be...

I want to make this happen. If it doesn't, because Jason has given my car a spot in the sun, I will definitely fulfill all requests for photos/videos by the end of this month. Nonetheless, I cannot see how they will be on a par with Savage's pics - it's too bad I've already made plans to fly when visiting Italy this year...

Watch this space, chaps....

I want to see pics of your sparkling Jerez parked in the middle of Wembley stadium with 90000 fans going crazy in the background. That would go along with the British identity and match Savage's pics.
